LAXITY

Skin laxity is the loss of skin firmness and elasticity that often occurs with age or as a result of factors like weight loss, sun exposure, and genetics. These treatments aim to tighten and rejuvenate the skin, improving its overall appearance.

RF MICRONEEDLING

RF (Radio frequency) microneedling is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure that combines two effective skin rejuvenation techniques: microneedling and radio frequency energy.

It is designed to help with skin laxity by stimulating collagen production and tightening loose or sagging skin.

It is designed to help with skin laxity by stimulating collagen production and tightening loose or sagging skin.

Here's how RF Microneedling work

Microneedling: RF microneedling begins with the microneedling component. During this phase of the procedure, a specialized device equipped with tiny, fine needles creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin's surface. These micro-injuries trigger the body's natural wound healing response.

Radiofrequency Energy: Simultaneously, the device delivers radiofrequency energy into the deeper layers of the skin. This energy gently heats the tissue beneath the skin's surface, reaching the dermis where collagen is produced.

Skin Tightening: As the skin heals from the microneedling and responds to the RF energy, it begins to tighten and firm. This tightening effect is particularly beneficial for addressing skin laxity and sagging in areas like the face, neck, and décolletage.

Collagen Stimulation: The combination of microneedling and radiofrequency energy is a powerful method for stimulating collagen and elastin production. Collagen is a protein that provides structure and firmness to the skin, while elastin helps maintain skin elasticity.

Gradual Results: While some patients notice an improvement in skin tightness shortly after treatment, the full benefits of RF microneedling become more apparent over time as collagen continues to regenerate. A series of treatments may be recommended for optimal results.

THREAD LIFT

A thread lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to address skin laxity and provide a subtle lifting effect to the face, neck, and other parts of the body.

A thread lift is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to address skin laxity and provide a subtle lifting effect to the face, neck, and other parts of the body.

Here's how Thread lifts work

Thread Material: Thread lifts typically involve the use of dissolvable threads made of materials like polydioxanone (PDO) or polylactic acid (PLLA). These threads are biocompatible and safe for use in the body.

Lifting and Tightening: The primary goal of a thread lift is to lift and tighten sagging skin. The threads are inserted under the skin through small incisions or entry points. Once in place, they act as a scaffold, physically lifting and supporting the tissues.

Customizable Treatment: Thread lifts are highly customizable. Depending on your specific concerns, threads can be strategically placed to target areas like the cheeks, jowls, neck, eyebrows, and more. The treatment plan can be tailored to your individual needs and desired results.

Natural-Looking Results: Thread lifts provide subtle and natural-looking results. They don't create a "pulled" or overly tight appearance but rather restore a more youthful contour to the face.

Non-Surgical Alternative: Thread lifts are an attractive option for individuals who want to address skin laxity without undergoing invasive surgery. It's an excellent choice for those who want to achieve a refreshed appearance with minimal risks and downtime.

SCULPTRA

Sculptra is an injectable filler made from poly-L-lactic acid. It stimulates collagen production over time, providing gradual and natural-looking results. Sculptra is commonly used to restore volume in the cheeks, temples, and jawline.

ULTHERAPY

Ultherapy is a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment that effectively addresses skin laxity by using ultrasound technology to lift and tighten sagging skin.

Ultherapy is a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment that effectively addresses skin laxity by using ultrasound technology to lift and tighten sagging skin.

Here's how Ultherapy work

Ultrasound Energy: Ultherapy utilizes focused ultrasound energy, which is delivered deep into the skin's underlying tissues. Unlike lasers that work on the surface of the skin, Ultherapy targets the deep foundational layers responsible for skin laxity.

Collagen Stimulation: The ultrasound energy generates controlled heat at precise depths within the skin. This heat triggers a natural response in the body—stimulating the production of collagen, the essential protein responsible for skin elasticity and firmness. Over time, this increased collagen production helps tighten and lift the skin.

Precision and Customization: Ultherapy allows healthcare providers to precisely target the areas of concern, whether it's the face, neck, chin, or décolletage. The treatment is highly customizable, ensuring that it addresses the unique needs and goals of each patient.

Long-Lasting Results: The results of Ultherapy can last for up to a year or more. Since the treatment stimulates the body's natural collagen production, the skin continues to improve over time, maintaining its tightened appearance.

Safe and Effective: Ultherapy is considered a safe and effective treatment for mild to moderate skin laxity. It is suitable for individuals who want to achieve a subtle lift without resorting to surgery.

No Post-Treatment Maintenance: Unlike some other treatments that require ongoing maintenance, Ultherapy typically requires only one session to achieve noticeable and lasting results.
